Forerunner or Edge?
I was pretty tired last night and just realized what you were saying about downloading maps....a big Duhh moment on my part!Right now I use a Cateye CD300 wireless computer, but thinking about jumping to a Garmin edge 500 to get HRM and to be able to download my routes..
Does anyone here use a Garmin Edge 500 or any Garmin?
Thanks
Full hu? odd!Rola your PM box is full and can't send you a PM.
Does this look like a ok price for a Manufacturer refurbished 305 with HRM and speed/cadence?

Rola did you buy sport tracks or are you using the free version? I downloaded the free version and it won't recognize my 800, when I go to import its not in the list. I can do it manually but that's a pain.I was pretty tired last night and just realized what you were saying about downloading maps....a big Duhh moment on my part!
I know Alex uses a 500 as well as SportTracks as well as myself and Poolie for doing what you are saying. It's an unbeatable combination for evaluating your ride, progress and being able to see almost every aspect of your ride. At one point I was spending as much time logging rides here and there and everywhere. I have settled on SportTracks and my Garmin.
It allows you to add equipment and list it, for example, on each ride you do so it easily tracks usage, mileage, etc!
Below shows two screens available out of many to choose from. All of which to say between the data the Garmin captures that you can use in SporTacks is pretty awesome.
I did pay for it. Poolie has an 800 and uses it, I can ask him about it.Rola did you buy sport tracks or are you using the free version? I downloaded the free version and it won't recognize my 800, when I go to import its not in the list. I can do it manually but that's a pain.
I've got the paid version too. For what that app does it's well worth it. To get the 800 to be recognized you'll need to pony up 5 EUR (about $7 or $8 bucks) and install the Garmin FIT plugin from Old Man Biking. You can find it on the plugin page.

There are certainly plenty of options to try and use for sure. I guess it depends on what you want out of the software.I just started using Strava. I love it. Strava.com and its compatible with the Garmins.
It used to be cycling only, but now they've incorporated running.
